About The Railway Tavern
A fairly common name for a pub, but possibly not for one that isn’t next to a railway and never has been.
The pub opened as a freehouse in 1839, possibly trading as Framingham House.
In 1845, during railway mania, Parliament considered a new line which would link Halesworth and Norwich via Bungay and Poringland, but it failed due to a lack of funds and backers.
The pub, however, had already changed its name in anticipation of the boom times to come and in 1898, it looked like it had been a good idea.
New plans were put forward for a light railway to be called The South Norfolk Light Railway which would link Norwich with Beccles via Trowse–Poringland–Seething–Loddon–Hales–Heckingham and Gillingham.
But this plan failed too – however, The Railway Tavern in Framingham Earl kept its quirky name.
